Till now we didn't see the real thing that this new version will offer I can say this could be called wp8.2 not more but I will wait for the development SDK to see if developers would be interested

I don't think so, I don't see how it'll somehow make everything better. Just another version to me.

They are adding features other OS's already have it nothing new or additional to make attractive that's disappointed 😞 and the idea of having the same OS on all the devices is more about what you will get on the PC not the phone as the features are shown

Doesnt seem like it, by a margin too far. Microsoft has to understand to give users choices, for instance opening a web link from any app in a browser other than IE. Small things are to be looked into before taking huge leaps, which they ignore.

I see it more as a window phone 8.2, in my eyes Microsoft is still playing catch up and are barely adding features that other phones been having. Although I do give them props for Cortana <3.

We're not talking about such stuff im talking basically about limitations in the os that are keeping dev away and keeping user complaining about what's available like sending mp3 with WhatsApp

I don't think windows 10 would be a savior but a stunning flagship phone with HIGHEST specs possible in the smartphone history would.if MS brings a flagship phone that kills all the flagship on the market right now sure that will intrigue most of the non WP users and will tempt them to try WPs.I believe MS would bring a true flagship possibly named "Surface phones"to match the premium quality of surface lines.See here for specs and concept pics:http://forums.windowscentral.com/windows-phone-concepts-dream-devices/345796-surface-phone-windows-10-true-flagship.html#post3023829

I'd like the new Qualcomm fingerprint scanner. Not an Iris scanner. That rumor has to be junk as people look lame doing that in a store!

A dock, well maybe. But given that a USB-C port can do everything, perhaps one of those.

The cross-platform coding that W10 brings with it MIGHT be the savior for WP.. One platform increases the numbers of windows users and if you create an app for PC, it isn't difficult to do a bit more and create the same app for xbox or phones. It's more about taking away the argument that we have a small amount of users... If it doesn't work after W10, it might never work at all... :/

I think the problem is in the development kit Microsoft provides it seems unsatisfie to the developers
